JM Energy Co., Ltd. has decided to expand the research building to strengthen its R & D functions. Completion is scheduled for June 2013, and the total investment for the expansion of the research building and the introduction of evaluation equipment is approximately 800 million yen.

JM Energy has been proposing and adopting various solutions for energy efficiency using power storage devices using the ULTIMO® series of lithium-ion capacitors, but has been researching and developing to quickly respond to expanding customer needs.・ We have decided to strengthen the evaluation system.

By expanding the research building this time and enhancing various evaluation equipment such as charging / discharging equipment and analysis / analysis equipment, we will promote development aimed at further lowering the resistance and improving the energy density.

Lithium-ion capacitors are a type of large-capacity capacitors that are energy storage devices, and have features such as high output density, high energy density, and high voltage, expanding the range of applications for capacitors. In particular, JM Energy's lithium-ion capacitor ULTIMO® is an ultra-low resistance type and has cycle characteristics (more than 1 million times) equal to or better than electric double layer capacitors.

As the ULTIMO® series, JM Energy has a lineup of lightweight and thin laminate type and flat square can type lithium ion capacitors with excellent robustness, from low voltage / stationary industrial machines to high voltage / mobile applications. We have carried out a wide range of technological development and marketing, and have accumulated a track record of adoption.

In the future, as energy conservation and environmental measures are required worldwide, new renewable energy-related equipment such as wind power generation and solar power generation, various industrial equipment such as instantaneous voltage drop compensation equipment and construction machinery, medical equipment, and unmanned transportation In a very wide range of application fields such as mobile objects such as equipment and automobiles, it contributes to the dramatic improvement of functions such as rapid charge / discharge, energy regeneration, peak assist, and power leveling, and various solutions to energy efficiency. We will provide measures.
